The First Violin is an intriguing and highly emotional play, in five Acts. It offers unique insight into the everyday lives of normal, hard-working Italian immigrants, living in New York City during the late 1950's. Fourteen-year-old Salvatore de Salvo, the eldest son of the family, is blessed with a precious and rare gift - he is a musical prodigy - who has a love of the violin. His talent offers him, as well as his whole family, a glimpse at a life that none of them ever imagined existed, let alone be part of. The dialogue is familiar and realistic, as could only come from an author who personally grew up and lived immersed in, and surrounded by, that culture and ethnicity. The First Violin is guaranteed to make you laugh, and to make you cry. It is a memorable work offering incredible vignettes that can be enjoyed by all ages. It is a timeless and unforgettable play that will touch your heartstrings.
